Food and supplement testing has been a necessary part of the safe supply chain which means so have the chemicals that go along with this and until today, there have been very few options that positively affect the environment. Supercritical Fluid Extraction with Supercritical Fluid Chromatography now offers an environmentally safer method that is also faster, as sensitive and as selective as your current methods. We present an alternative way to extract and measure vitamins.

Clinical studies suggested that glucosamine has the potential to be used to relieve joint pain causing by Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. We offer several methods for the characterization and quantification of glucosamine in dietary supplements and ingredients. The selection of the testing technique is dependent on the sample matrix, formulation, and the method used when establishing product specifications. Read through this article to learn more about the use of glucosamine in supplements and the options for testing methods.
